Gain insight into the minds of USEA Young Event Horse (YEH) judges by checking out this footage from the 2020 USEA YEH Symposium, part of the 2020 USEA Educational Symposium!
Led by YEH Committee Co-Chair Marilyn Payne, judges and spectators in attendance at the 2020 YEH Symposium evaluated four demo horses on the flat and discussed scoring for each at the walk, trot, and canter. Each demo horse received coaching from Andreas Dibowski, the Educational Symposium’s guest clinician, and the judges were asked to score each horse again.
Then, the exercise was repeated out on the cross-country field for the gallop. Several demo horses demonstrated their gallops to the judges before they discussed the positives and negatives of each horse and then stated how they would score the gallop and why.
